ok so update time


cleared out a bunch of my corals from the bonsai tree "sanbed" and now have a little breathing room again lol

nitrates have been climbing a bit so i swapped out a few large water changes today, lost my cleaner shrimp in the process but the tank is looking better than ever.

hydroids are dissappearing and im sure the peps are eating them.

copperband has demolished any and all aiptasia


i have a large amount of pink sponges, white sponges and pinepple sponges growing i imagine its from the mass amounts of phyto ive been feeing lol sps are still in great shape and growing fast.

in my sump i took a good look last night after leaving the lights out back there off for a few days and i have i bet a few thousand mysid shrimp swimming around and brewing , im going to syphon some out and add thm to the display.....funny my phosphate reactor is full of mysid as well lol


also the other night i got my moorish idol to take pellets and he now loves them, im using the fauna marin soft shrimp pellets and he goes nuts for them .

hummm im thhhhhaaaaaaaaaaatttt close to gettig my copperband butterfly to eat from my fingers he pokes at my fingers but wont take the actual shrimp lol as soon as i drop it he gobbles it down.

these two fish i thought were gonna be very bad choices but have turned out to be the opposite and easier than some of the other livestock i have.

Sometimes, you just to have to do what you want to do instead of listening to all the controversial theories out there, for example "morish idol? best of luck keeping that one!"

I really want to come and give a knock at your door to see the fishes but time is not permitting me
